Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them. But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister. And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant: Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many. Matthew 20:25-28

Matthew 20:25-28 I've almost never seen this lived out in life. I will look at this again.

selflessness is needed for this. putting aside you life, your wants and sometimes needs to give to others anything. it can be as simple as giving them a ride somewhere, or sweeping the floor. I think it really is important to look upon others needs and be attentive to them as they were your own needs.
we should all strive to do this. and when you do see it lived out it looks like loving your neighbor.
i think what stops us from doing this in our life is often me me me. but when we live it God shows up and meets our needs and in fact, most often meets our needs more than we can do for ourselves.

Cletus is typing away with his brand new fingers . PRAISE THE KING MY FRIEND . PRAISE THE KING . Yes, and he is doing it in spite of having a lot of stitches in that finger. That is dedication.

I am typing one handed. i got to keep moving it tho. i can feel the tendons sliding inside the tendon wrap, which keeps the scar tissue from forming and seizing up my tendons. i am taking pain meds equivalent to morphine... and it still hurts. the soreness from surgery is a bit over my level of tolerance. The only reason i am not at work is they wont let me go back yet. my boss jokes with me saying i cant get everyone else to show up... and i cant get you to stay home, what am i gonna do with you? i reply, put me to work. Yall be careful with knives. this aint no fun.
